Getting leadership started

1) How do you get members to take an active role in the leadership of the chapter?

I think the talents survey is a good idea to encourage people to use their talents on behalf of the chapter. You would also be surprised that with a little encouragement (ie praise) people will discover talents that they didn't even know they had! Once discovered, again encourage people to use them. People are more active when they are happy with what they are doing and making a positive contribution.

3) How do you cut out the trend of having only a handful of men doing the majority of the work?

See question number one. The more diverse (theres that word again!) your group, the less likely you have people with duplicate talents which paves the way for involvement of more of the membership.

4) Is it possible to turn apathy around without cutting half your chapter out?

See question three. If members are involved, they won't be apathetic!

Hope this helps!
